I wish someone would re-encode Wookiegroomer 4/5/6 into H.264 MKV from the orignial WMV they are simply massive when they shouldnt have to be.

Huh?  They're 1080p and the bitrate is right in line with what an HD video should be.  Reencoding them into H.264 MKV files wouldn't make the file sizes that much smaller and it would require an even more powerful CPU to view them then the current WMV files do (h.264 is more CPU intensive than VC-1).  I can watch the WG releases, and any other VC-1 encoded HD video, flawlessly on a dual core CPU.  H.264 files generally use up significantly more processing power and sometimes don't even properly play without extreme lag (depending on whether there are subtitles and if they're hardcoded or not).

If you want them reencoded, feel free to download them off usenet and do a reencode.
